DIGGING FOR IRON.
Fortunes Being Made in Mining ON
the NSenominee Range.

Fortunes BEING Made in Mining ON
the NSenomimee Range.
CRYSTAL FALLS, Mich, April 1g.-The
developing of iron mining properties in this
region of country is something remarkable.
This is comparatively new region, and
only within the last year has its wonderful
resources become known. Considering the
number of mines yet to be opened very few
have been worked. Capitalists have Sc
cured options oil nearly all of the valuable
property, and many new companies will be
organized during the coming summer sea-
son. The Youngstown and Kimball mines,
that were entirely unknown short time
since, have proved to be veritable gold
mines, and millions of dollars will be made
out of them as rapidly as the ore can be
taken from mother earth. The Paint river
mines are proving Of equal value, and
all the surrounding property is as good as
government bonds. The Windfall Iron
company's mines on north one-half of north
one-half section %, in town 43, range 80.
Just east of the Great Western: the Paint
river and Youngstown mines contain 100
acres and is one of the most promising
properties on the range. The managers of
it have fifteen to twenty pits in good ore,
the vein running east and west through the
whole length of their property. Extensive
machinery and twenty horse power boiler
and pump have just been put in. These
properties pay from S1.5O to S1.T5 per ton
net, taken out; particularly the adjoining
mines to the Paint river and Windfall
mines, by reason of the low royalty of 80
cents per ton.
The officers of the company are: H. D.
Fisher, president; Capt. r. P. Fitzgerald,
vice president; John S. George, of Mil
waukee. secretary and treasurer. The low
royalty is of great value to permanent min
ing. Five thousand shares can be had for
development purposes from the secretary at

He promises by Sept. to offer a series of
text books second to none now before tn e

are more important than even the best text

Decline Of FOrtune.Teiling.

Hartford Times.
A business followed chiefly by women
that has declined greatly in New York in
twenty years is that of the fortune tellers.
\ good deal of it still remains. and doubt
less will remain, but the golden age OF the
fortune-tellerS seems to be past. l have an
idea that the business never recovered from
the hammering it got from that old genius,
Philander DoestickS in the Tribune, away
back before the war. Doesticks (Morti-
mer Thompsonj visited all the fortune
tellers in turn and wrote them up in a
way that amused the town, and, by expos
ing their tricks, shams and nonsense in
general. hurt their crafty calling pretty
badly. The impostors of this class who
still ply their trade do SO obscurely and as
much out of public sight as possible. Only
few of them how advertise i'll the news
papers Instead of inviting notice they
are rather inclined to shun it. One expla-
nation of this is that publicity is dangerous
to certain immoral traffic which most of
them carry OH. in connection
and hand reading. In other words
they are afraid OF the police,
for the law deals sharply with the crime
of Turing young girls to paths of ruin
Fortune-telling and what is known as
procuring are often one and the same
thing. So bad has the repute of fortune.
tellers in general become that women and
girls who value a good name won't risk
going near them, and as nine-tenths of
their dupes in the most prosperous times
were either women or girls their trade
is suffering very much. They still catch a
servant girl or shop girl now and then and
stuff them with lies but these are growing
more wary and chary of them every day.
